In this tranquil world where all animals live in peace, carnivores and herbivores have an agreement to live amicably. Yagi is a goat who loves reading (and eating!) books; his dream is to become a bookstore clerk, but goats who eat paper aren't exactly welcomed at places that sell books! But maybe he can charm Ookami, the scary wolf store manager into giving him a job...

Yagi the Bookshop Goat

Such an adorable pair, and I loved the art style. The side characters were all fun and well written. Cute, sweet, funny, some spice, and a little angst. It was a good time.

This adorable albeit a bit smutty Boys Love manga had me hooked from the the cover alone! I love stories set in bookshops and felt particularly drawn to this one as I used to be a bookseller. Yagi is a cute goat boy who dreams of selling books after having a love of books fostered by an older kid who worked at a bookstore. However, being a goat, it is well known that goats have an affinity for all things paper, so every bookshop on his side of town (the herbivore side) adamantly refuses to let him anywhere near books. Thus, this bibliophile of a goat finds himself on the carnivorous side of town begging for a job. Enter broody wolf boss, Ookami san! He has a special connection to Yagi and is endeared enough to give him a job. Thus sunshine Yagi and grump Ookami devour…I mean…navigate the book world together while slowly revealing their true passion…each other! 😭 I really liked this manga, but knocked it down a half star only because I feel like the few smut scenes made it feel a little less sweet and wholesome in the end (granted I should’ve been prepared for them… but I assure i was not hahah).
This book reminded me of Zootopia, Skullface Bookseller Honda San, Yakuza Lover, and Food Wars.
